Hi Ethan,

>Absorption on a wall close behind you should be thick and not FRK. You need to absorb mids and highs as well as bass.

Okay, is regular 705 good or should I go with 703?

>Traps straddling corners, or near corners, should be FRK and should also be at least 4 inches thick. Two inches thick is not enough.

Yes, this is where I run into problems. I could use 4 inch material, but then it would have to be right against the wall. I'll go ahead and do that with the FRK, but I only have four inches available. Too bad, I'd love to go thicker here. I'm hoping the FRK ceiling trap will make up for the fact that I can't put much in the corners back there.

Thanks again!
